Treaty of Greenville

The Treaty of Greenville was a peace treaty signed between the United States government and the Native American tribes of the Northwest Territory on 3 August 1795 at the end of the Northwest Indian War. The treaty led to the natives ceding Ohio to the white settlers, and Ohio would be coclonized by the USA in the following years. However, the Native American tribes would continue to oppose the US government (with British assistance), leading to the War of 1812.
